' it goes on '

'In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on' Robert Frost

Five months - with trips to 4 hospitals - different patients/family members and outcomes - some were good, some were so-so - and one flat broke my heart.

My last birthday gift from her -- a piece she treasured for over 30 years and now it's mine -- so like her to give me something she loved. I see it first thing every morning and the last thing at night -- funny how just the sight of it can ease the hurt.

Even now, she's guiding me thru the hard part of learning that life does go on.
